Microsoft is expected to pickup the loss for the console and make up for it in software sales... From research, the think the top people will pay for the console is around $300.

Sony is expected to charge considerably more for the PS3

Even HD (1080i) is less resolution than anyone would consider running on a home machine for games if they're a gamer. 720p would be a bit more impressive, but still, the point is consoles can get away with lesser video cards because they're not driving the same resolutions as a computer.

The Cell processor on the ps3 has twice the processing power of the 360's, the video card is better than two geforce 6800's.. this thing will dominate the 360, like I said before.

a big part of their decision was also because nintendo has always been a target for piracy. back with their cartridges they were fairly easy to copy.. which is one of the reasons they went with the smaller disks. as far as i know, you still cant copy them as easily as xbox/ps2 games.

the processing power/graphics will be about the same im sure.. so the machine itself wont matter. its the games that will make or break the system. you can have the most badass machine imaginable but if you have nothing but shitty games, it wont matter.

kinda like gamecube....lots of great potential but crappy games... i mean look how freaking awsome resident evil 4 looked.. to bad they dont have more of them 🙂
